AI Visibility Scorecard
Rakuten
ebateshotels.com · Travel & Hospitality
Borderline visible. AI bots can crawl Rakuten, but the structured-data signals are thin - you are at real risk of being skipped when buyers ask ChatGPT, Claude, or Perplexity for a recommendation.

About Rakuten
from our crawl and measurement
Rakuten is a business whose own site puts it this way: "Pack up and get ready to go, because Rakuten will help you get Cash Back on all your travel needs, from airfare and hotels to car rentals and more!." When AI engines look at it, they find little to work with. It scores 4.9 out of 10.
Our crawl found a readable heading structure. It is missing structured data describing the business, an llms.txt file and a sitemap.

What this score means
Your AEO score measures whether AI search engines - ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini - can actually read your site and cite it in answers. Roughly two-thirds of sites are invisible to them. At 4.9/10, Rakuten is crawlable but under-signaled - fixable, and the signals above are where to start.
